LatestWhen a torrent of fish falls from the sky onto the former mining town of Kerwin's Landing, Declan can't resist investigating. What he discovers is a town in decline, facing tough economic times. To everyone's amazement, the falling fish are only the beginning of a strange series of downpours that help pave the way to a brighter future.
Declan Dunn has a fascination with mystical phenomena that began when he was buried under an avalanche and given up for dead. After he miraculously survived, he committed his life to investigating miracles and the absolute proof of their existence. Now a professor of Anthropology at a leading Oregon university, Declan has the training, support staff and the opportunity to study the uncanny, inexplicable phenomena people call "miracles". With the help of Peggy, a skeptical psychiatrist, and Miranda, a research student, the three embark on a quest to explain what science cannot.
